WICKED TUNA CAPTAINS AND CREWS ARE GETTING HOOKED UP FOR ST. PETER’S FIESTA

Just had to send a shout-out to ‘Local Colors’!

If you are shopping for a unique or special gift, then ‘Local Colors’ is the place to visit. Besides supporting local artists, you will come away with a special appreciation for their work, & of a quality shop with something for everyone’s taste.

I found some great earrings, made of tin — check them out there! There are many types & styles. One pair is more fun than the next!

And, we also purchased our daughter & son-in-law’s 6th anniversary gift — some beautiful photography of rocks at Good Harbor Beach — one of our & their favorite spots.

On the next Cape Ann Profiles show host Rich Sagall interviews Cape Ann TV interns Alexis Cruz and Tierny McTiernan. They are local high school students who relate their experiences at CATV, describe what they are learning, and how other students can benefit by becoming involved at the station. Cape Ann Profiles can be seen on Cape Ann TV Channel 12 on Friday, June 29 at 10:30AM and 7:00PM and on Sunday, July 1 at 2:00PM. It repeats on Friday, July 6 at 10:30AM and 7:00PM and on Sunday, July 8 at 2:00PM.

Fred has produced everyone from John Coltrane to the Bobs Dylan and Marley. If you’ve seen a jazz concert in Boston, it was probably one of Fred’s. Throughout his lifelong commitment to music and breaking talent he has introduced us to Richard Prior, Earth Wind and Fire, Bruce Springsteen, Billy Joel, Pat Metheny and countless others at his respected jazz clubs, Pall’s Mall and the Jazz Workshop on Boylston Street – remember them? Sue works closely with Fred and for years with the Newport Jazz, Newport Folk, Boston Globe, Tanglewood Jazz and a billion festivals through her Sue Auclair Promotions. The talent these two have worked with – when will they write their books?

Miles Davis once acquiesced that Fred was hipper than he! Sue and Fred handled Miles’ comeback in 1981. Fred’s still producing concerts and is the Entertainment Director of Sculler’s Jazz Club in Allston, turning it into one of the top ten jazz clubs in America.

The lovable Freddy told jokes and did magic tricks to the delight of Rudder patrons. His entourage, always an assortment of adoring women, prompted one woman diner to say, "However old you are, you must be really special to be surrounded by so many beautiful women!" Fred and Sue love the Rudder and come up as often as their schedules allow, and agreed “It’s the tops!” for their dual birthday celebration.
